Daniel Lyrics

We once had a time
Meet me at The Castro tonight
I held a rose
You held who knows, but that's fine

And we fell in love
We fell in love at the Jon Reed choir
And right there and then
I swore to no end
Swore to never let you go

But love's got a way
Of fading away
Oh-oh, I never saw you again
I never saw you again

Waiting in line
To see Suede play
And we had a time
I wish we could stay
And waiting in line
To see Suede play

What is the Meaning of Daniel?

Reflecting on the ephemeral nature of love and youth, this poignant composition delves into a past relationship marked by intense emotions and shared experiences. The lyrics suggest a romantic encounter that blossomed during a Jon Reed choir performance, symbolizing the power of music in forging connections. However, the line "But love's got a way of fading away" conveys the transitory nature of their relationship. The repeated reference to waiting in line to see Suede play serves as an emblem of their shared memories and longing for times past. Ultimately, it is a nostalgic ode to lost love and missed opportunities, encapsulating the bittersweet essence of reminiscence.
